Tetairoa McMillan | Arizona Football

Arizona wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan (4) snares a one-handed grab behind USC defensive back Mekhi Blackmon (6) for a big gain in the first quarter of their Pac 12 football game at Arizona Stadium, Tucson, Ariz., October 29, 2022.

Two Arizona Wildcats have made the Pro Football Focus All-True Freshman Team.

PFF tabbed receiver Tetairoa McMillan and guard Jonah Savaiinaea for the squad, which was released Tuesday.

Another Wildcat, receiver Jacob Cowing, was named an honorable-mention All-American by PFF.

McMillan finished his first season with 39 receptions for 702 yards and eight touchdowns. The yards lead all true freshmen nationally and are the most by a freshman in UA history. McMillan also tops all FBS freshmen in receiving TDs.

Savaiinaea started all 12 games for the Wildcats at right guard. He ranks ninth in the Pac-12 among guards with a 77.3 pass-blocking grade from PFF (minimum 211 snaps). Savaiinaea was charged with only two sacks allowed and zero penalties for the season.

Cowing, a fourth-year junior, ranks sixth nationally with 85 receptions. He accumulated 1,034 yards and seven touchdowns. Cowing has the second-most yards after catch in the nation (638), per PFF, and the third-highest grade as a slot receiver (90.2).

The All-Pac-12 teams and season awards are scheduled to be announced next week.
